SUPER MICRO Computer 5015M-U/5015M-NT, Power Supply Failure, Removing the power supply

SUPERSERVER 5015M-UR/5015M-U/5015M-NTR/5015M-NT User's Manual

5015M-U/5015M-NT

The SuperServer 5015M-U/5015M-NT has a single 560 watt power supply, which is auto-switching capable. This enables it to automatically sense and operate with a 100v - 240v input voltage.

Power Supply Failure

If the power supply module fails, the system will shut down and you will need to replace the module. Replacements can be ordered directly from Supermicro (see contact information in the Preface). As there is only one power supply module in the 5015M-U/5015M-NT, power must be completely removed from the server before removing and replacing the power supply for whatever reason.

Removing/Replacing the Power Supply

1. Removing the power supply

First turn the power switch on the control panel off, then unplug the power cord from the system. Replace with the same model (p/n PWS-561-1H20), which can be ordered directly from Supermicro (see Contact Information in the Preface).

To remove the failed power module, fi rst remove the screws that secure the power supply to the chassis. Locate the colored release tab, push it to the right then pull the module straight out with the handle provided (see Figure 6-6, redundant power supply server shown). The power supply wiring was designed to detach automati- cally when the module is pulled from the chassis.

2. Installing a new power supply

Replace the failed power supply with another identical power supply module. Care- fully insert the new power supply into the open bay and push it completely into the chassis until you hear a clicking sound, meaning it has been fully inserted. Secure it to the chassis with the screwd you removed previously, then reconnect the AC power cord and depress the power button on the control panel to restart the system.
